From the summit of Sentinel Mountain you get incredible views across the Kidney Pond & Daicey Pond valley to the Mount Katahdin Massif. The summit here is partially forested, so you have cover but also plenty of views and rock scrambling. The trail between here and Kidney Pond is mostly flat until you hit the base of the mountain, and then you get a very short but steep climb.
